louisiana governor bobby jindal is going crazy these days broke the peace and went outside the white house and dumped all over his host, that being the president, it was connecticut's dan malloy who came to the host's rescue. dan malloy joins us next. bobby jindal won't answer our calls. >>> jan brewer in arizona, well, apple the computer company says veto it. arizona's two republican senators say veto it, that includes john mccain. the chamber of commerce says veto it. the super bowl host committee says veto it. does arizona really want another martin luther king holiday mess on its hands like the old days? >>> plus, guess who is benefitting from implementing the health care law? a bunch of republican governors. do you believe it? is not one of them who has expanded medicaid is in political trouble this november. and what's that tell you? >>> and it looks like ted nugent just can't get enough of comparing president obama to guess what? the nazis. he is at it again, just days after making that arm-twisted apology of his. this is "hardball," the place for politics. i'm looking forward

if there's one group that threatens this, it's bobby jindal's own party.e doctor's office with the decision to impose a set of principals on a woman and her doctor. it's entered city hall to legislate what love is and who is entitled to it. the party has entered the boardroom to withhold private health care for employees. as for the guy supposedly in charge of prosecuting this silent war, the president of the united states, he hasn't been all that silent. last week we gave a 20 minute speech at the national prayer breakfast on the importance of religious liberty. >> we affirm the freedoms endowed by our creator. among them, freedom of religion. brave men and women of faith has challenged our conscious and brought us closer to our founding ideals from the abolition of slavery to civil rights, workers rights. >> from hospitals to courtrooms to office buildings, there's a silent war going on. bobby jindal is on the wrong side of it. i'll see you back here on monday 4:00 p.m. eastern. >>> good evening, americans, and welcome to "the ed show" live from new york

that was a proof of life from bobby jindal. thank god a grownup jumped in.e way, do you outweigh the guy about 75 pounds because i notice you moved over without waiting for him to get out of the way. your thoughts about minimum wage and why they're not the white flag. >> first of all, i'm the youngest of eight. i had to fight for food. i know how to do that kind of stuff. >> by the way, michael steele is with us too. >> we had a good meeting. actually, governs in agreement on how to handle national guard issues, unanimous. we're in agreement on what we can do to improve medicaid and medicare, unanimous agreement. the press conference itself was going very well. jindal i think is trying to gin up his own numbers and gin up his own popularity. i think he thinks he can run for president, which is quite frankly a little bizarre. >> is this the new way in, governor, where you have to talk like rand paul and go after bill clinton, hit him below the belt, do this kind of stuff, really be little bit out of it, risk being over the top in order to get the attention of

but bobby jindal didn't get the memo. wait until you see how one democrat responded. >>> also, think the gop's ted nugent problem was over? think again. he's got some new comments about nazi germany that should have republican leaders very worried. stay with us. this is interesting.

bobby jindal's numbers are not that great either. good politics for jindal in the state of louisiana to argue and to debate president obama. let's also remember of course that 2016 is just around the corner. bobby jindal is definitely thinking about it. definitely thinking about running for president. this is perfect opportunity for him to say to republican voters, i will fight in the shadow of the white house. maybe republican voters think, hey, bobby jindal belongs in the white house. >> that is interesting point. i was on "special report" with bret baier. listen what he said as he explained himself. >> we don't have kings in this country. this president thinks he can interpret the constitution and apply laws when and how he wants them. he thinks he can go around congress. i think it is unfortunate the democratic governors have to defend the president whether he is right or wrong -- >> sound like potential campaign speech. >> that's right. governor jindal has to break out here. he is not a big name in the way that chris christie is

thank you, bobby jindal, for speaking for millions. >> i thank you too, bobby jindal. >>> chris christie a hit in the approval rating. >> wait a minute. >> this is horrible. no. there there is a worst ever and everybody last night on tv -- this is just -- this shows he is dead. >> must be in the 20s. what happened? >> he is dead politically even with a skajed dcandal dogging h new jersey. wait, wait. he is still more popular than a lot of those democratic governors governing in neighbor democratic states who have pounded him nonstop. >> wait a minute. i'm confused. >> 49% of registered voters in new jersey approve the job chris christie is doing in office. >> those are. >> that's down from last year obviously. but, hey, as blood, sweat and tiers said what goes up must come down so if you're in the 70s you ain't going to stay in the 70s. who is the other two governors who have gone after him the most? dannel malloy who is coming up later. >> you have national democrats. >> how are those governors doing? >> let's see. in maryland, martin o'malley who is going to run for president -- >> wai

. >>> earlier, i talked about what the president said to the governors with louisiana governor bobby jindalrnor jindal, thanks for being here. >> bret, thank you for having me. >> you're at the white house today. here is how "time" magazine describes this encounter at the white house. jindal breaches white house protocol to take shots at obama. here's the quote. louisiana governor bobby jindal launched into a repeated assault on president barack obama's leadership in the shadow of the west wing in defiance of established bipartisan protocol. your response to that? >> look, it was a very respectful meeting, but let's not paper over. we have real substantive differences with this president. the point i was making, i made it when i was talking to the president and on the white house grounds is that this president is waving the white flag of surrender. you know, if the best he can do is a minimum wage economy, that's not the best america can do. his policies are resulting in a stagnating economy. you look at what's happening in america. lowest labor participation rate in 36 years. he talks abou

bobby jindal has a-plus people around him. he's a very smart guy. he understands the politics of the party and how to bridge the legality and grass roots. >> governor strickland, what do you think about governor caseic? where do you think he stands? >> recent polling showing hillary clinton would best him in ohio and every other potential republican candidate, but the fact is that governor caseic has a record now. he talks about the ohio miracle. there is no ohio miracle. we're 45th in job creation. we've lost more jobs per capita i believe perhaps than any other state in america. unemployment is now going up rather than down. so i think governor caseic has to worry about being reelected in 2014 quite frankly before he thinks about 2016. whoever the republicans bring on board, i think, is facing a terrific challenge if secretary clinton decides to seek this office. i think she's by far the frontrunner. the country is ready and hungering for the leadership of a woman in that position. we want to break the glass ceiling as we did with the racial divid

"bobby jindal comes out swinging." her chief executives in front of the white house after a meeting with the president. taking the microphone, bobby jindal said, among other things, that the obama economy is now the minimum wage academy and the white house is waving the white flag of surrender. it's amazing nobody fainted. governors are now in town to share blankies and not hurt feelings. they're supposed to be bipartisan-ish and leave the spleen venting to congress, bobby didn't get the membero. he has to be aggressive to convince the republican base that he's a stand-up guy willing to jump in the ring with apollo creed. okay, so maybe with dannel malloy. i can't tell if that's a compliment or criticism? >> i think it's an observation. nicolle wallace remembered back when she was in the bush administration, cokie roberts, when everybody would be inside shaking hands and hugging and then go, hey, we have to go outside and may have to say a few tough things about you and they'd go out on the lawn and reed and pelosi woul

you were the one bobby jindal first said, the republicans stop being the stupid party. >> right. it was interesting to hear what he had to say today when i asked him did he think they would stop. >> there are current examples of the fact that you still have those. mike huckabee talking about women easily we doughs, for example. when that kind of thing happens, democrats are gleeful. exactly the kind of fodder that they want and especially on mid term year turn out typically drops to elevate their own base, african americans, hispanics, young voters, women. those are the kind of comments that you see party leaders like jindal cringe. they want this election to be entirely about obamacare implementation. state of the economy, president obama's overall popularity. any time they have opportunity to change the topic it scares the republicans. >> yet makes it great for somebody like governor bobby jindal to have the focus on how dysfunctional they are. they get to make the case, this is why you need to elect a governor in 2016. forget all those guys trying to run from washington, we're

. >> malloy's comments prompted an exchange with bobby jindal outside the white house.lloy said one of the biggest is states don't get revenue from the oil and gas are not inclined to take the risk for environmental damage. >> among these governors, there's great disagreement as there is across the whole country, whether increasing the minimum wage is a good thing or bad thing. >> and with bobby jindal, a big disagreement. mr. obama praised states that have boosted their minimum wage and would like donning raise it nationwide. in steps to 10.10 by 2016. but republican governors strongly disagree, and of course bobby jindal is one of them. >> we shouldn't accept policies like the minimum wage, which the cbo says will destroy 500,000 jobs. just said obamacare will result in two million fewer americans working. america can do better. america can absolutely grow our economy. we shouldn't be waving the white flag when it comes to growth. >> jindal accused the president of presiding over what he called the minimum wage economy. white house press secretary accuses the governor

rick perry supported bobby jindal and chris christie won with support from other governors, wolf.l rivalries going on. chris christie still has pretty strong support. as long as he is raising money for the rga, he is going to be okay, presuming no other shoes drop. >> presuming that. the wisconsin governor, scott walker is also continuing a potential republican presidential kapd das y. >> texas has an atm for republicans. they come here all the time to raise money, specifically dallas and houston. he is raising money and met with harl an crow. rand paul is in the state doing donor meetings and giving speeches. texas is a huge state. democrats were trying to make hay of the fact that rick perry and greg abbott are not meeting with chris christie. they are not meeting with scott walker either. they come here all the time and that's what they're doing today. >> in dallas for us, watching the republicans. thanks vanish much. tv personality star jones calls herself the face of heart disease. her story of survival is next.

bobby jindal's just grabbing the microphone. >> yeah. it seems that way.ested in what he had to say. he was offering all kinds of economic advice. you know, the mean wage in his state is 44th among all the states. they're second in poverty. he's 45th in people covered by health care. i'm not sure he's the guy we're going to be looking for for advice on how to get this economy moving. >> and the president has been telling the governors, administration's been telling republican governors you can do a lot to improve the situation for people in your state simply by accepting the medicaid provision in the affordable care act. let's listen to what chris wallace and scott walker said about that yesterday. >> you turned down $119 million in federal money to expand medicaid. >> mm-hmm. >> a lot of people would say, really? >> well, in our case i don't think the measure of success in government is how many people are dependent on the government. i want people to no longer be dependent because we empower them to get good jobs. >> david axelrod, how is that going to s

. >> the president's already running into opposition from republican governors like bobby jindal, who will meet the president later this afternoon. >> one of the things i want to share with him is that this president, this administration, has a chance to be laser focused on job creation. we're not doing that. this president feels like he can act yunilaterally. >> all right. let's bring in "washington post" columnist and msnbc contributor e.j. dionne and molly ball. welcome to you both. e.j., i want to start right there with the pen, the phone, and the laser. we all remember bill clinton said he wanted a laser on the economy. walk us through what bobby jindal's up to here and the context of these meetings with president obama. >> well, i think you have to put this in the context of two kinds of politics, one is electoral politics. we have a lot of governors on the ballot this fall, and as my colleague pointed out in "the washington post," the governor races are a mirror image of the senate races. in the senate races, 36 of them, 21 are states where democrats are defending seats, and a

a little bit from bobby jindal's speech last night. richard in myrtle beach, south carolina, republican line. what do you want from washington? would like to see something i thought i would never say -- term limits -- initiated before the following election so that the congressmen and senators that i have, if be on board and initiate anything, i will vote against them. in the primary. host: why have you come to that conclusion? caller: i have come to the conclusion because of the morass there right now. they are so entrenched and self-serving. they think it is ok to lie because it is part of a tactic. they call it "it is just politics." there is no sense of decency or standards these people have. they think the ends justify the means, and they don't. i am just fed up with seeing it. i would like to see across party lines -- vote them all out. and then recycle. you have the senators, 33 at a time. at the end of the day -- there will be a lot of good casualties, but it will send the right message if you do it this term. they might straig

but bobby jindal is correct. i mean the minimum wage is a loser from the very beginning. president says there is no tax impact on it. of course there is a tax impact. what everyone fails to realize is that all those minimum wage earners who get higher wages, someone has o p for those higher wages and these are marginal companies that are struggling to survive, are going to pay above the minimum wage. they will substitute capital for these people. and it will drive them out, as i said, this bills the minimum wage bill is deadly on inner-city youth. deadly on the poor, the minorities, disenfranchised, people that need these jobs. lou: inner city, minority youth. we're talking aout just 25% unemployment rate for young males. >> worse. lou: by the w that is jst about what it was in 1965. we've got to get serious about solving problems. i mean there is this attitude on the part of the liberals, art, that it is, you know, it's a patronizing nonsense. >>>terrible. lou: these folks are collateral damage to liberal policies and so we have the rightntentions so we can say, the hell

level. >> bobby jindal is going to eliminate the tax form to do that.ker is interesting to me, he took over $3.5 billion budget deficit, and turned it into a $900 plus surplus. rick scott, no income tax in florida. no income tax in new york state, and i see estimates between your rainy day fund, your state surplus, you have anywhere between 8 and $12 billion without a state income tax for a rainy day? $12 billion? how much is it? >> it really is pretty simple. closer to 12 than it is 8. and the fact is, don't spend all the money we put on good policies into place. we put an environment that says we're not going to take more of your money away from you, we're going to have a predictable and stable regulatory climate. we're not going to allow frivolous lawsuits to go forward, if you expand your business, you know there's going to be a skilled workforce. that's a formula that will work. it will work in new york, it will work in california it's working in places like florida, louisiana and texas. >> this is the thing to me, the republicans just gave the pre

take a listen to bobby jindal's view here. >> this is a no-brainer. have been made a long time ago that the canadians are going to go and get this and the question is whether they sell it to us or the chinese. i'd rather come here to america. >> it's one of the arguments that sounds good but it's weird because there's plenty of other things that countries do and sell and we may or may not decide to deal with. the biggest question for republicans is, have they made the sale that this is good on our own terms, regardless of what canada might do? >> yes. the state department released yesterday or on friday, it i can mas commonsense, right? this is just a tweaking of the proposal they announced back in march, back in spring. it's long overdue and it's good, quality paying jobs and more importantly, governor jindal said it, let's buy it here as opposed to selling to the chinese. this is long over due. >> jonathan, your thoughts. and are you against jobs? >> i am not against jobs. i'm also not in favor of destroying our environment. this all comes down to t

these are big names, bobby jindal and rick perry. it means that not only they but their allies may not be there if he falls. and you want that. >> let me ask you, michael, because as much as things are fraught on the republican side of the coin as it relates to chris christie, there are issues with democratic responses to this entire scandal. you point out, you know, the question of overreach is something that i think a lot of democrats have been asking themselves about. you point out the dnc alone has issued 58 e-mails about the christie administration's role in several alleged acts of american bridge, another democratic research group, has issued 169 requests for information from the christie team. that seems to be having in a weird way the reverse effect at least -- in the party which is maybe endearing christie to hard right conservatives in sort of -- who see him as a victim here. how cognizant do you think the democrats are of this issue of overreaching? >> i'm not sure. i'm a bit surprised at their willingness to discuss their

but bobby jindal is correct. i mean the minimum wage is a loser from the very beginning.nt says there is no tax impact on it. of course there is a tax impact. what everyone fails to realize is that all those minimum wage earners who get higher wages, someone has o pay for those higher wages and these are marginal companies that are struggling to survive, are going to pay above the minimum wage. they will substitute capital for these people. and it will drive them out, as i said, this bills the minimum wage bill is deadly on inner-city youth. deadly on the poor, the minorities, disenfranchised, people that need these jobs. lou: inner city, minority youth. we're talking about just 25% unemployment rate for young males. >> worse. lou: by the way that is just about what it was in 1965. we've got to get serious about solving problems. i mean there is this attitude on the part of the liberals, art, that it is, you know, it's a patronizing nonsense. >>>terrible. lou: these folks are collateral damage to liberal policies and so we have the right intentions so we can say, the hell

when bobby jindal comes up with an idea that is good, i'm going to go borrow it.omebody sees what we're doing in texas, say on our drug courts and the population of our prisons going down, jerry brown could look at that and take that and put it into place. even president obama and attorney general holder said that is good policy for us to be able to keep these prison populations down instead of sending kids to prison to learn how to be really hardened criminals for small drug use. still illegal. but instead of sending them to prison, intervene with these drug corps. those are the types of ideas we can agree pop and as a country, i mhappen to think if you move substantial amounts of the decision making out of washington, d.c. from the rangerrous, very core rorosive climate back to the states, our citizens would be happier. >> if the gop were to retake the white house in 2016, what will have to happen in terms of the divisions that are there? >> i think the governors will be the leaders. 2014 is so important. if republican governors do well in toes states with senat

for instance, louisiana governor bobby jindal, i can to the say enough great things about this guy. so i will not start. (laughter) then there's senator rand paul, many have called him constitutionally eligible to run for office. and of course as always chris christie, yes, yes he's if a bit of a rough patch right now. but by 2016 i'm sure this whole scandal is just going to be a bump in the-- i mean-- i mean-- i mean the whole thing's just going to be water under the-- (laughter) but whoever they run, hillary will not be the unstoppable she-gernaut. republicans, for the record, do not fear. because fox news has just uncovered a bombshell of a lifetime. >> hillary clinton could face an obstacle that has nothing to do with her husband's past or even her own. howard kurtz looks at the controversial question of how old is too old. >> the age question is growing louder than just a whisper. raised by former can dt and now fox news host mike huckabee. >> look, if she's going to be at an age where it's going to be a challenge for her. >> if hillary clinton is the democratic candidate for p

how the country's evolution on gay rights has been cast as a war on traditional marriage, why bobby jindal silent war on religious liberty after federal judges struck down same-sex marriage bans in oklahoma, utah, and virginia. in other words, there's the war and then there's the war on the war. the war on the war on the war. how did we get here? the atlantic notes democrats have been assailing the gop as a socially insensitive party for years but the right's response began changing in the 'ninety. back then the most typical republican response would be to wage against political correctness and race-baiting. gradually republicans took a different approach trying to make the case democrats are the real racists. affirmative action became reverse racism. clarps thomas accused democratic senators of a high-tech lynching. "the wall street journal" journal complained democrats blocked miguel estrada's judicial nomination because they felt threatened by a hispanic conservative. some republicans began referring to the democratic party as a plantation. joining me now is joy reed, host of the new sh
